Answer:
Lesson 2 and metric conversions from Module 2. ... Problem 2: Convert hours to minutes. ... of minutes in one hour. How many minutes are in an hour? 0. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.
The answer is 12 including both sides and angles.
When you cut a square piece of paper from one point to the opposite point it should make two triangles.
Thus each triangle has 3 sides and 3 angles so two triangles has 6 angles and 6 sides
So 12, sides and angles added together.

Define x :
-----------------------------------------
Let the smallest number be x.
The other two numbers will be x + 1 and x + 2.
-----------------------------------------
Construct Equation :
-----------------------------------------
Sum of these numbers is 72
⇒ x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 72
-----------------------------------------
Solve for x :
-----------------------------------------
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 72
3x + 3 = 72
3x = 69
x = 23
-----------------------------------------
Find the numbers :
-----------------------------------------
1st number = x = 23
2nd number = x + 1 = 23 + 1 = 24
3rd number = x + 2 = 23 + 2 = 25
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer : The numbers are 23, 24 and 25.
